Hello Listers:
I have a customer who would like to play sound files (MP3, WAV) on an alarm condition instead of the typical alarm horn. The current set-up is a PLC activating the alarm horn on a fault.
The first thing I suggested was to use an inexpensive PC interfaced to the PLC and play the appropriate sound file on an alarm. However the customer requires at least 5 of these units in different locations. The PC solution would work but is too bulky and may require an external amplifier.
Does anyone know of an appropriate solution that can accept digital inputs from the PLC to play various pre-programmed sound files?
Thanks
